I'm not a violent person and never get into trouble but if I suddenly became superman I'd immediately punch Putin to death. And a bunch of other politicans / plutocrats that have made the world 100x worse.
This is exactly what happens in The Boys too
Spoilers for the first few seasons: the righteous non supers find drugs to give themselves superheroes so they can battle the corrupt super heroes. Yes, this cheat code to power begins to corrupt them too.
Further, the super hero Council and corporation works hard to replace the roles the military covers. They then become an unaccountable shadow agency that the people want to keep doing the work of the government.... But then democracy is slipping away.
See I wouldn't do any of that. I work from the top down only. Just keep punching assholes at the top to death, then the next person takes his place. Eventually there won't be assholes left, so we'll actually get good leaders 😅
I wouldn't touch anything else, policing, military democracy it all unfolds as it does. But assholes wouldn't run for office or lead any douchenoozle armies becuase, you guessed it, punched to death!
Oh OK, hubris of the jedi over here
